The big damn crazy weight of local rocanrol manifests itself on Saturday, Feb. 3 at Albuquerque’s best venue ever, Launchpad (618 Central Ave. SW) when local metalurgists, shoegazers and hardcore maniacs Crushed!? present a CD release show to coincide with their new record, Sins of the Father. The new album deftly defies genre, racing through insane licks and profound power chords with one title tracks that have names like “Girly” and “Bonestorm.” There are also like, totally burnt cuts such as “Japanese Style” and “Testament To My Twenties” to reckon with on this album, so make sure to take some earplugs along for the ride you get at said Launchpad. A full night of local punk rock prowess is on display this evening; SHREWD, Nitekidz, Supreme Verdict and Subtle Knife are also on the bill, so you probably should eat lightly and shine up your Docs before the show, too. $5 • 8pm • 21+.
